بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
“The month of Ramadan in which the Quran was revealed, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs of guidance and criterion. So whoever among you witnesses the month, let him fast it. And whoever is ill or on a journey, then an equal number of other days. Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship, and (He wants) for you to complete the period and glorify Allah for what He has guided you to, and perhaps you will be grateful.”
— (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:185)
The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said:
“O people, the month of Allah has approached you with blessings, mercy, and forgiveness. It is the best of months in the sight of Allah, its days are the best of days, its nights are the best of nights, and its hours are the best of hours.”
Al-Zahraa Islamic Center is honored to invite you to participate in the commemoration of the nights of the blessed month of Ramadan, held daily in the presence of Sheikh Dr. Rashad Al-Ansari, who is coming from England, starting from the first day of Ramadan, as determined by the Islamic sighting of the moon.
